Massively sucks and hate it when acts do this last minute.

Her management have probably got her on lock and already booked to return to EU next year to do arenas, fests or whatever so just thought 'cancel those small shows to a couple of thousand total because VMAs are much bigger and return next year to make it up to the fans'.


 

the Vma's mean literally nothing nowadays. I mean they were so scared about being buried in the news  because the presidential debate was the same night that they moved the ceremony to 9/11. And its happening in New York. They cant even have this thing on a Sunday because it would get zero attention because it wouldve been during the opening weekend of the NFL. Thats how much nobody cares. The only relevance it has its because it is now fan driven votes  for almost all the categories except the major awards. They didnt create best k pop group just cause they thought it was needed for example.

I read a theory on Reddit that as she's grown more popular it was an easy choice to cancel a couple of shows with capacities of 1.5k and instead do the VMAs with audience numbers around 3-4 million.

 

Really sucks for the 3k people who'd saved up and paid up, though.

And presumably this also comes with having a professionally shot live performance clip to share for all and sundry.

 

You'd unquestionably find it annoying though. And it is quite crap given this has presumably been booked for a little while.

    • Wednesday is a nice addition imo
    • Kronenberg in a tent as well IIRC but Brooklyn Pilsner was easier to get without queueing and was everywhere across the festival.
    • I think they'll end up doing something due to pressure and bad PR. Maybe they do a discount code for next year or bar credit or something along those lines.    I agree though. I acknowledge that the lineup is huge but surely you can't cancel 33% of the headliners and not reimburse in some way. Their insurance will probably cover their fees for MA, Doja, Bad Gyal and Mac DeMarco due to force majeure. 
    • Looks like nothing for weekend ticket holders. You'd expect a goodwill gesture. 
    • Enough has been covered about how much of a sh*t show that was, so I'll just say, Massive Attack and it's relationship with this festival (and potentially me) are f**king cursed.    They were announced in 2020 when I first got excited about seeing them. They were subsequently on the poster for 21, 22 and now 26. This time I was in actually in the crowd close to the stage waiting for them twice haha. I give up!
